Hosea 11
1 I loved Israel when he was a child. He's my son I called out of Egypt.
Kad Israēls bija bērns, tad Es viņu mīlēju, un Savu dēlu atsaucu no Ēģiptes.
2 As they called them, so they went from them: they sacrificed to the Baals and offered incense to idols.
Bet jo (tie pravieši) tos sauca, jo vairāk tie no viņiem nogāja; tie upurēja Baāliem un kvēpināja elku tēliem.
3 I myself taught Ephraim to walk, taking them by the hand, but they didn't realize I was the one who healed them.
Es tomēr Efraīmu mācīju staigāt, Es tos ņēmu uz Savām rokām, bet tie neatzina, ka Es tos dziedināju.
4 I led them along with cords of kindness, with ropes of love. I was the one who eased their burden and bent down to feed them.
Es tos vilku ar cilvēka valgiem, ar mīlestības saitēm, un tiem biju kā kas apaušus no viņu žokļiem atvieglina, un Es tiem pasniedzu barību.
5 However, because my people refuse to return to me, they will not return to the land of Egypt but Assyria shall be their king.
Viņš neatgriezīsies atpakaļ uz Ēģiptes zemi, bet Asurs, tas būs viņa ķēniņš, tāpēc ka tie liedzās atgriezties.
6 War will sweep through their cities, putting an end to their boasting and destroying their plans.
Un zobens zibēs viņu pilsētās un nobeigs un aprīs viņu aizšaujamos viņu padomu dēļ.
7 My people are hanging on to their apostasy from me. They call him “god on high” but he will not raise them up at all.
Jo Maniem ļaudīm prāts nesās, no Manis nogriezties; tie gan top aicināti uz augšu, bet neviena nav, kas ceļas.
8 How can I give you up, Ephraim? How can I let you go, Israel? How can I make you like Admah? How can I treat you like Zeboiim? My heart is breaking; I am full of compassion.
Kā Es tev darīšu, Efraīm? Vai Man tevi būs nodot, Israēl? Vai Es tev darīšu kā Admai? Vai tevi postīšu kā Ceboīmu? Mana sirds ir griezusies, un Mana apžēlošanās visai iedegusies.
9 I will not execute the fierceness of my anger, I will not destroy Ephraim again. For I am God, not a human being. I am the Holy One living among you. I will not enter your cities.
Es nedarīšu pēc Savas bardzības karstuma, nedz Efraīmu atkal postīšu, jo Es esmu Dievs un ne cilvēks, tas Svētais tavā vidū. Un dusmās Es nenākšu.
10 The people will follow me, the Lord. He will roar like a lion. When he roars like a lion then his children will come trembling from the west.
Tad tie dzīsies Tam Kungam pakaļ, Viņš kauks kā lauva, un kad Viņš kauks, tad tie bērni no vakara puses drebēs.
11 Like a flock of frightened birds they will come from Egypt, like doves they will come from Assyria, and I will bring them back home, declares the Lord.
Tie drebēdami nāks no Ēģiptes, kā putns un kā balodis no Asura zemes, un Es tiem likšu dzīvot viņu namos, tā saka Tas Kungs.
12 Ephraim surrounds me with lies and Israel with deceit, and Judah still wanders with some deity, faithful to some “Holy One.”
Efraīms Mani apstāj ar meliem un Israēla nams ar viltu, un Jūda vēl šaubās ap Dievu, to uzticīgo un svēto.
